I am trying to install Oracle version 10.2 on a Redhat 5.3. I am getting a error when installing it

"ora-27123 unable to attach to shared memory segment when database create."

Any of your recommendations will be appreciated. Thank you. Best regards.

Hi Wexler, the cause is called failed and you have to check permission on segment and contact oracle support if possible.  well, there are tips I can give you on pre installation and installation  process and I will provide you some links that might help your problem.  http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e16763/pre-install.htm.  Before troubleshooting ,be sure that you already verified the requirements, (Unpack/unzip files, set kernel parameters and etc.)  and your red  hat Enterprise linux  5.3 with default packages is properly downloaded.  And it is also recommended that you will add more physical memory on the host or configure it.
